There's actually a very simple recourse: don't pay them any more money or play the game. In this case, Blizzard is definitely more afraid of making their customers unhappy and turning off their funding, then the other way around.

Which is part of the reason why they have been very slow to act on some of this abusive behavior to begin with: players blame other players for abusive behavior, but they blame the company when they get banned.
